Not sure about about you, but that is a huge difference in feel.

I agree- BEFORE YOU FLAME ME READ THIS!!!- The E46 feels more 'urgent' at low RPM, but once you get on it, there is no comparison to the E92 which wants to 'seemingly' rev to the stratosphere -again look at the Dyno which confirms my seat of the pants feel. Keep the E92 on the upper rev range and it is just not a comparison.

LOL. We all know the E9X is faster. Thats not debatable. But you cant say "No, MrHarris, the E46 does NOT feel faster to you"

I agree completely, the E46 felt more raw and quicker.
